Empirical Analysis on the Impact of the Integration of Cross-administrative Highway Transport on Regional Economic Development
The integration of transportation infrastructure across administrative regions is the foundation and forerunner of promoting the development of regional integration.Based on the analysis of highway traffic construction in the adjacent counties of the Yangtze River Delta,a multi-period DID model is constructed to study the impact of cross-administrative highway traffic integration on the economic development of the adjacent regions.The results show that the integration of highway traffic in adjacent counties of the province brings"level effect"to regional economic development,but does not bring"growth effect".At the same time,the integration of highway traffic will promote the flow of population between the neighboring regions of the province,but it can not optimize the industrial structure of the region in the short term.In addition,compared with the developed regions,the integration of road transportation can make the developed regions drive the economic development of the less developed regions through the"diffusion effect".Therefore,it is suggested to further increase the road network density of highway infrastructure in the adjacent areas of the province,and promote the economic development of the less developed areas with the integration of highway traffic,so as to realize the coordinated development of the adjacent areas of the province.
